I wish you feel these secret emotions
These impulses I lock away, praying to God they’re purely platonic.
I wish to wrap my fingers in your hair,
I wish your uniquely cinnamon scent was up for grabs.
Your fluffy sweaters drape you well,
And your puffy eyes peak out like an unforeseen storm.
If only you would feel the way I do.
But if you do not, can we still be friends?
there's this guy i know, he seems great and i hope our friendship grows stronger, but my emotions are all muddled and i'm hoping, really hoping i don't want more...
He's one of my best friends best friends, and it would be just so dramatic, and i know for a fact he doesn't like me, i doubt he even thinks of me as a friend yet...

The taste of butterscotch and sunshine laces my lips.
And the scent of honey and smoke fills my lungs,
If I could choose one color, it’d be your love.
You are the warm glow of fire,
making even the darkest of places your home.
And if you could stay my friend, I’d greatly appreciate your kindness,
I know others are closer,
but when they pull you with them, begging for your soft glow,
I wish we’d stay here, closer in our friendship of yellow
okay this was a pure emotional write and i sort of hate it but imma post it anyway and just hope no one cares about how absolute trash it is..

If you only knew, that your depression, your despondency, would only last a moment...
I beg,
Don't make a decision that is eternal, for one period of time.
For one year of bleakness.
Don't deprive yourself of a happy ending.
If you only knew how much love for you I've been given.
If you only knew how many hours I spent praying for you.
How often I sobbed.
If you only knew how much He loves you.
If you only knew of the joy awaiting you, how, the life in every fiber of your soul is so incredibly inspiring.
If you only knew...
My best friend attempted suicide in 6th and 7th grade. both of those times i added something to this poem... It's not the best, a bit outdated and prematurely written, but it was a very healthy coping method for me.

You
A thousand delicate moments,
of fall forests, and moon music...
A soft whisper,
of peachy dreams, and diamond winds...
Reaching, always searching,
An impossibility, a forbidden caress.
I can never have  You.

I'm sad
I'm tired,
I don't know why,
And trying seems a bit hard,
But don't let that fool you,
I love my life,
I love my world,
And this is simply...
Me
life is a bit weird right now, but i'm doing pretty good fam.

A life of sun
A way of love,
I missed you all,
I don't know your expectations,
I don't know your love,
I can't think of why
you'd pick to be friends with me.
But If you want to,
I'd accept,
Because you've exeeded
All of mine.

I’m from Late night movies, goodnight phone calls, and reading till morning.

I’m from dragonfly walls, lost sleepovers, and 3am hot-tubbing.

I’m from spadolini sauce, moonpies, peach rings, and truffle popcorn.

I’m from my struggles that made me strong, my joy that propelled me through life, and my friends who taught me the beauty of the broken hearted.

I’m from the lyrics of Oh wonder, Lily Ire, and Elizaveta.

I’m from the movement of air past my face, the spinning of limbs through silk, and the taut of my muscles before I fly.

I’m from my mom with her comforting touch, and my Dad with his sweet humor.

I’m From Driving through tunnels of green - darkness all around -hand out the window, music blasting-  And My brother sitting next to me, singing like an angel...
This is a project for school, but i learned a lot about myself in the process. Pls enjoy
